Paint a Loose and Easy Paint a Boathouse
Imagine yourself walking along the shore and coming upon an old boathouse. The character and texture speak to you, and you want to capture the essence of your experience without overdoing it. Learn to eliminate excessive details and overthinking to become more expressive through unique techniques that allow spontaneity. I know you will find this project surprisingly fun and insightful.
